They say that parenthood changes a person. It does. There are way too many to mention, but it hit me the other day when I was at the nail salon. (OK, so some things have not changed. ha ha. Well, I haven't had a manicure or pedicure since Joshua was born, and I can't remember the last time I went 3 months without having either. Please give me some credit). Back at the nail salon, they had a stack of magazines. I passed over Lucky, Shape, and even Vogue. I picked up.... Are you ready for this? ......................... Working Mother Magazine!
And, I even enjoyed reading it.
It made me realize that plenty of women make both raising a family and being a successful business woman work. The key is flexibility by the employer. I don't work for a company that offers anything even remotely close to what some of the other companies in the magazine offer. But, if I can have a quiet, private place to pump, a little shorter work day/week, and a little less stress in my work day - then I will be happy too.
